According to OBRM-PDUKM deputy Bojan Stojanoski, the average net wage in Macedonia has seen a substantial increase over the past two years. Speaking at a press conference, Stojanoski presented official data detailing the wage trajectory. He stated that the average net wage stood at 40,496 denars in March 2024, rising to 48,433 denars by March 2026.
This represents an overall increase of nearly 8,000 denars, equating to a 19.6 percent rise over the two-year period. Furthermore, Stojanoski provided an analysis comparing wage growth to inflation. During the same timeframe, the increase in prices was recorded at 7.8 percent.
After accounting for inflation, the real increase in the average wage is estimated to be close to 11 percent. Stojanoski concluded that wage growth has outpaced the rate of price increases, thereby contributing to an improvement in citizens’ purchasing power. He also noted that wage increases have been observed across all economic sectors, indicating broad-based wage growth within the Macedonian economy.
The figures highlight a significant upward trend in the average net earnings denominated in denars.
